This Just In: Designer Bill Blass died.

[Spiky Bugger]

...about 17 years ago.

So why do I have so many fancy-schmancy Bill Blass scarves?



(Still “downsizing” closets, etc.)

Because you have excellent taste?

You made me stop and think. I don't have any scarves...not a one.

Are you making an offer?

When I wear a solid color top, I often use a very long scarf to create a “V-look” in front, which, of course, makes me look VERY SKINNY.

I was like Oh no! He died?!

I liked his signature perfume way back when.

this made me remember a cartoon I hope very much I can find and post. stand by.

ETA: no luck so far

I figured out the cartoonist was Dick Guindon who worked in Minneapolis in the 1970s - I thought he was a scream. a seriously silly man and a great talent.

can't find the cartoon I wanted, though, it was of a large couple wearing vertical stripes and ...I guess you really can't explain a cartoon, you need to see it.

let's see if I can share something else by Guindon just for the flavor of his work.

His work is unique.

and a lot of it was specific to Minnesota, I guess. those of us from there think he is hilarious but others might not.
